Indian City is an Indian restaurant at 4 New Bridge Street, positioned between Blackfriars and St Paul’s. Its two floors of seating create a comfortable setting for City lunches, work dinners, casual celebrations and longer evening meals.
The menu draws on cooking from different regions of India, using layered spices and fresh ingredients across traditional curries, grills and house dishes. That broad approach helps groups combine contrasting sauces, proteins and vegetable preparations at one table.
Classic dishes sit beside restaurant signatures, with rice, breads and accompaniments completing a shared meal. Service is designed for both the shorter lunchtime window and a more relaxed dinner, and takeaway and delivery provide alternatives to eating in.
Indian City serves lunch and dinner from Monday to Saturday and accepts reservations. Beer and other drinks are available alongside the food. Guests with allergies should tell the team before ordering and discuss dairy, gluten, nuts, sesame and shared preparation areas.
Address: 4 New Bridge Street, London EC4V 6AA, England
